Doing the Weekly Shop in the Metaverse is CHAOS (youtube.com)

Remember that dystopian, Big Box VR shopping video? It was dull and boring and filled me with dread.

How would you make this more fun? (assuming the tech is there, which feels increasingly likely given the acceleration in the space with Oculus Pro and Samsung re-entering the hardward game)

My idea, as gleaned from this

, is a gamified experience. One where Supermarket Sweep meets Twisted Metal meets Escape from Tarkov.

Imagine an extraction bonus for items collected, or a discount health meter where each hits knocks your discount down all the way to zero. There's so many directions this could go.

And, honestly, it feels like all retail verticals will become increasingly gamified as we move into the digital space.
